Abstract excerpt
The neurotransmitter phenotype of sympathetic neurons is specified by interactions with the surrounding embryonic tissues. Adrenergic differentiation is elicited early during development in the vicinity of notochord and dorsal aorta and the importance of axial midline tissues for adrenergic diffe...
